Chapter 304: The Will to Fight, Gu An's Hostility
Chapter 304: The Will to Fight, Gu An's Hostility
Seeing the prompt from the cycle of reincarnation, Gu An hesitated.
If this were before, he would have definitely chosen to expose the third concubine’s crimes and seek justice for himself. But Chu Lu’s life was too short, and it left a deep psychological shadow on him.
Although the cycle of reincarnation only affected his lifespan and not his true self, he still felt like he was playing with a ten million-year lifespan.
Moreover, the prompt was too brief, and he couldn’t analyze the situation in detail. He didn’t know the third concubine’s background or the depth of her actions. If he exposed her, would it bring disaster upon him?
Forget it, he would endure for now. Although it was unfair, it wasn’t something he had to experience personally.
[You choose not to reveal that the third concubine poisoned you, and the turmoil in the Xiao Duke Manor is thus resolved]
[At eight years old, you began practicing the sword. During practice, you accidentally cut a Spirit Blossom, gaining eight years of lifespan. From then on, your cultivation journey took a dramatic turn]
[At twelve years old, thanks to the cycle of reincarnation, your cultivation broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm]
[At seventeen, the Great Ming Dynasty was besieged by three dynasties, and the mountains and rivers were shattered. You followed the Xiao family south, constantly encountering attacks and battles, and your lifespan grew rapidly]
[At eighteen, while fleeing, you encountered two severely injured cultivators, one male and one female. They begged you to save them and kill the other. You were torn between the two choices]
[You choose to neither save nor kill anyone]
Without hesitation, Gu An made his choice.
[You didn’t act, watching them die. After they died, you took their storage pouches]
Seeing this prompt, Gu An almost burst out in anger.
How could he be so reckless?
The following years were filled with fleeing and battles.
All the way until...
[At twenty-seven, a Great Ascension Elder from the Supreme Origin Sect found you, suspecting you of killing his offspring. Because you had his offspring’s storage pouch, you denied it, but he still wanted to kill you. In the end, you both suffered heavy injuries, and you were separated from your family]
At twenty-seven, you fought a Great Ascension cultivator, and Xiao Shengtian had his ways.
It seemed that the path was also wild.
Gu An sighed inwardly. He could only see the general outline and wasn’t clear how many enemies Xiao Shengtian had killed during this process.
[At thirty, you joined the Green Wave Sect and began to focus on cultivation]
[At forty-five, the Xiao family was slaughtered, and you learned of the news, feeling heartbroken. You began to investigate who the enemy was]
[At fifty, after five years of investigation, you learned that the force that slaughtered the Xiao family was the Li family from the Eastern Mystical Region. You left the Green Wave Sect alone and headed for the Eastern Mystical Region]
Seeing the words "Eastern Mystical Region," Gu An inwardly cursed.
Why did everything go well, and now his family was killed again?
Speaking of which, Gu An had no family in this life, living alone in the Ji family manor. Was this his destiny?
[At sixty, you stormed the Eastern Mystical Manor’s secret realm test, sweeping through the geniuses of the Eastern Mystical Region, and you became famous]
[At seventy, you cultivated the Heavenly Gang Holy Body in the Eastern Mystical Manor. The Manor Lord favored you greatly and wanted to marry his youngest daughter to you. Do you accept?]
No!
[You rejected the Manor Lord’s good intentions, and he took you as a disciple, and you received the Eastern Mystical Manor’s vigorous cultivation]
Seeing this, Gu An’s face broke into a smile.
That’s more like it!
The rest of his life was filled with cultivation. Xiao Shengtian continuously improved his constitution, techniques, and abilities, and his choices were limited, delving deeply into each type of cultivation.
The years flew by rapidly.
[At 137, you participated in the Five Regions Holy Competition, and with an absolutely dominant stance, you won the title of the strongest genius of the era, and the Heavenly Gang Holy Body’s name spread throughout the world]
[At 138, you encountered Li family cultivators while cultivating. Because of the deep blood feud, you clashed with the Li family. You were nearly killed by a mysterious Transcendent Immortal, but you were saved by an immortal named Mysterious Harmony True Person when you were severely injured]
[At 139, your injuries were not fully healed, and the Li family attacked again, vowing to kill you. Mysterious Harmony True Person used great divine power to send you and his children into a temporal rift, and the three of you landed in the Dark Continent]
[At 140, Mysterious Harmony True Person’s son could not withstand the invasion of the dark forces, and he ultimately perished, his soul falling into the darkness, disappearing. You searched for him with his sister]
[At 142, the two of you could not escape the Dark Continent, and Mysterious Harmony True Person’s daughter also turned into a dark spirit. Enraged, you began slaughtering the dark spirits of the Dark Continent]
[At 143, you encountered the Black Emperor of the Dao Void Immortal Realm and had your soul extinguished]
[Reincarnation ends]
What?
Damn, the Black Emperor again!
How did you reach the Dao Void Immortal Realm this time?
Gu An’s eyes widened, and his anger could not be suppressed.
If the Black Emperor had the ability to sense hostility, he would have received a strong signal from Gu An by now.
This guy had tormented him in two lives. How could he bear it?
Gu An immediately vanished from the room, teleporting to the bottom of the ocean in another world, then activating his lifespan barrier.
Vast memories flooded his mind.
An hour later.
Gu An opened his eyes, his face showing a complex expression.
Xiao Shengtian’s life was even more exciting than Chu Lu’s, advancing rapidly, settling scores, and possessing the reputation of the strongest talent of the era. He also encountered many beautiful people.
Unfortunately, he still died.
From his memories, Gu An understood the terror of the Dark Continent. The Dark Continent was even larger than the entire Heavenly Spirit World, and it was impossible to fly beyond its boundaries. The world was dim and vast, as if one could never leave it, and a mysterious force called the dark power was devouring him.
If it weren't for his incredibly powerful Heavenly Gang Saintly Body, Xiao Shengtian might not have made it to the day he met the Black Mysterious Emperor.
It's worth noting that the Black Mysterious Emperor of the Dao Xuanyuan Immortal Realm is truly terrifying. Not only does Gu An possess the memories, but he can also vividly recall the feelings of that time.
When the Black Mysterious Emperor killed him, he seemed to deliberately preserve his physical body.
The thought of his body being used by the Black Mysterious Emperor leaves Gu An feeling extremely displeased.
He doesn't know where the Dark Grand Universe is or whether their timelines align. If they were to meet and the Black Mysterious Emperor’s cultivation level was lower, he would make sure the Black Mysterious Emperor felt utter despair.
Living only 143 years in his second reincarnation is truly frustrating.
However, the gains this time were greater. While the Heavenly Gang Saintly Body isn't as powerful as his Primordial Dao Body, it can still be passed down to his disciples.
The true gain is Xiao Shengtian’s will.
Xiao Shengtian cultivated a combat will, which grows stronger the more severe his injuries, allowing him to sweep all opponents of the same realm. Even against higher realms, there's a chance to counter-kill.
Of course, for Gu An, the combat will mainly benefits him during tribulations.
Would he find tribulations easier to navigate with this will?
Gu An ponders this, unsure who is stronger between him and the Black Mysterious Emperor in the Dao Xuanyuan ImmortalRealm.
He really wants to test his skills against the Black Mysterious Emperor.
He disappears into the sea, reappearing in the pavilion of the Third Medicine Valley.
Though the process of merging memories caused some commotion, it was far less intense than his previous breakthrough.
Sitting in his chair, Gu An suddenly feels the urge to try again.
The next time, he shouldn’t choose the Dark Grand Universe, no need to clash with the Black Mysterious Emperor.
Forget it.
Bad luck!
In the cycle of reincarnation, Gu An can only make significant choices. He can't control his specific actions within the cycle, meaning the cycle is unknown.
Since it's unknown, it must be mystical!
Moreover, Gu An must break through, he can't afford to delay.
Gu An takes out the "Green Hero's Journey," flipping through a few pages, his thoughts are completely diverted.
What an incredible book!
Even if Xuantianyi died now, with this book, he remains a saint in Gu An's heart.
...
News of the Great Cold Demon Sect being eradicated by Dao Sword Respected spread widely, enhancing Dao Sword Respected's reputation.
In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed, and it's now the end of the year.
Snow blankets the vast, desolate world.
Gu An writes books in the pavilion, documenting the cultivation methods and supreme techniques of Chu Lu and Xiao Shengtian. He isn't planning to immediately disseminate them but writes them for fun, to be used if the opportunity arises.
Suddenly, he senses something, raises an eyebrow, and puts down his pen, vanishing from the room.
On the distant ocean.
Bai Ziya lies on a large gourd, flying through the clouds with his legs crossed, looking quite relaxed.
He senses a presence, opens his eyes, and sits up.
Then he sees a figure rapidly approaching, and his face lights up with joy.
It's Meng Lang, whom he's been looking for!
Gu An quickly flies to Bai Ziya, clasps his hands, and smiles, "Bai Dao Friend, I didn't expect to see you here."
Bai Ziya naturally states his purpose, bows, and smiles, "Meng Dao Friend, long time no see, are you well? Were you affected by the Great Cold Demon Sect?"
He has flown into the area where the Great Cold Demon Sect posed a threat, though this is just the fringe, which is why Gu An dared to come and meet him.
"No, I wasn't here at the time. I only heard about the Great Cold Demon Sect's destruction and came back," Gu An shakes his head.
Are you well?
Pretty good, just broke through to the ninth level of the Dao Xuanyuan ImmortalRealm!
Bai Ziya invites Gu An onto the gourd, and they begin discussing the Great Cold Demon Sect and Dao Sword Respected.
Bai Ziya is deeply shocked by the news, never expecting such a significant event to occur in the Heavenly Ling Grand Universe.
While the Great Cold Demon Sect isn't as powerful as the Human Peak, it's not far behind. The ability to destroy the Great Cold Demon Sect alone is unimaginable.
Those who survived from the Great Cold Demon Sect are scattered, and many of their enemies are now taking advantage.
Bai Ziya is very curious about Dao Sword Respected, asking Gu An when this person emerged. Gu An mentions he was in seclusion and doesn't know when Dao Sword Respected appeared.
They talk for a long time, with Gu An mostly asking questions and Bai Ziya patiently answering.
After half an hour.
Gu An suddenly asks, "Bai Dao Friend, have you heard of the Dark Grand Universe?"
Bai Ziya frowns, surprised, "Dark Grand Universe? I haven't heard of it. Is it powerful? Where is it?"
Gu An can only say, "I'm not sure, just heard a senior mention it, so I'm curious."
Then, he takes his leave from Bai Ziya.
Bai Ziya quickly adds, "The Human Peak is about to host the Ten Thousand Year Summit. You must attend and formally take over as the peak leader."
Gu An nods and flies away in the direction away from the Tai Xuan Gate.
Once he's far enough, Bai Ziya mutters, "Dark Grand Universe... It feels like I've heard of it somewhere..."
Thank you, Wang Xi, for the 500 Qidian coins, and Luzhen Xianfeng for the 500 Qidian coins~~
